    Default Just Finished My Boat


    Hello,
    I have completed restoring my boat. I redid the carpet myself and had Line-X installed. I started to have the whole boat did in Line-X but I wanted to feel carpet on my feet when I was fishing. Also I disassembled the boat an took peices to the line-x dealer to get sprayed. The reason I did that was if the live well up front or wires went bad under the floor I can still take the boat apart and fix it.

    My boat is made by Lowe and is all alumiunim. I scraped all the carpet off and sanded the glue off with a electric hand sander. It did a good job removing the glue.

    I checked with a line-x dealer and carpet guy for a price to install carpet/line-x and the price was the same to do either $1200. I decided to do it myself and save a couple hundred dollars. I made one mistake and ordered too much carpet. After I received the carpet I wanted line-x installed too. I ordered 30 foot of carpet and just used 10 foot.

    Now I have 20 foot of carpet I have to sell, I will post in the classifieds.

    It was not hard to do you just need some tools, time, and YOUTUBE.

    You did right by keeping carpet under your feet. LineX is HOT. If you ever do another boat look at Hydroturff
